Quantum magnetic monopole condensate

Magnetic monopoles are predicted by grand unified theories but remain elusive as elementary particles. Here, extending electric-magnetic symmetry onto full quantum behavior, the authors demonstrate that magnetic monopoles emerge as excitations in condensed matter systems, where they can form a quant...
